If I could, I'd get away

Far from all this trouble I see everyday

Nobody wants to, show their face

This life is like a masquerade

I know You love me, I know You care

But while I'm hurting
I just need to know You're there

Watching over me, and I feel You telling me

Count it all joy, always remember

Life will get better, it's gonna get better

No matter the weapon, it will not prosper
Things will get better, it's gonna be better

Persecuted, pushed away

Didn't think I'd live to see another day

Cried some tears and, couldn't pray

And when I tried at times
I couldn't find the words to say
But now I'm stronger, because of You
Without You Jesus I never could have made it through
Thank You for watching me

Loving me and telling me

Count it all joy, always remember

Life will get better, it's gonna get better

No matter the weapon, it will not prosper
Things will get better, it's gonna be better

Count it all joy, always remember

Life will get better, it's gonna get better

No matter the weapon, it will not prosper

Things will get better, it's gonna be better

Life sometimes may change and nobody wants to feel pain

But it came to help you grow,

this one thing you need to know

God's in love with you and He'll never let you go

Count it all joy, always remember

Life will get better, it's gonna get better

No matter the weapon, it will not prosper

Things will get better, it's gonna be better

Count it all joy, always remember

Life will get better, it's gonna get better

No matter the weapon, it will not prosper
Things will get better, it's gonna be better
